Features: A Jiangnan rural village named Hetaudun experienced severe loss of collective assets during the reform process. Some of the well-known private enterprises we see today were once township enterprises from that era. Perhaps they are reluctant to look back, especially to recall the dark hole they navigated before accumulating their initial capital. This story artfully recreates the deep-rooted reasons for corruption in grassroots governance and mercilessly exposes the collusion and mutual exploitation of power, money, and sex during the reform process. It scorns those village bullies and rascals who abuse their authority, engage in (speculative maneuvering), seize gains unfairly, and convert public assets into private ones. The incident occurred in the village, but the backdrop of the dark dealings is closely linked to corrupt officials at the town, city, and provincial levels. The "win-win or lose-together" network became a "sick society" for corrupt officials. The problem is not difficult to identify, but how to solve it? This book seems to be exploring a new literary experience, not fitting the usual "" ( novels). Please do not make direct comparisons. With sharp observation, incisive analysis, rational thinking, and a clear-cut, righteous, and resolute writing style, the author delivers a shocking and exhilarating reading experience to the readers.
